Description

"Wholehearted living is about engaging in our lives from a place of worthiness. It means cultivating the courage, compassion, and connection to wake up in the morning and think: 'No matter what gets done and how much is left undone, I am enough.' It's going to bed at night thinking, 'Yes, I am imperfect and vulnerable and sometimes afraid, but that doesn't change the truth that I am brave and worthy of love and belonging.'" - Dr. Brene Brown

This 12-week psychoeducational group experience is based on the work of Dr. Brene Brown. In her years of research on shame and vulnerability, she has realized the power of courage, compassion, and connection in creating shame resilience and moving toward a more whole-hearted and joyful life. In this workshop, we will work through her model of developing shame resilience.

Because shame thrives in an atmosphere of isolation and silence, we will gather together to tell our stories, explore our vulnerability, and courageously create compassionate connections with ourselves and others.

In the safety of this group experience, you will learn to: - Understand your shame triggers and work to counter them - Speak "the language of shame" as a way to move out of isolation and into connection - Offer empathy - the antidote for shame - to yourself and others - Find the courage to drop your masks and be your authentic self in the world - Experience the joy that comes as a result of these new connections with self and others

Each session will include: - Check in and support for change - New learning via videos and short talks - Exercises to apply what's learned to your particular situation​- Art Journaling
